In fact, trouble was on its way for every strong dog with warm long hair. This was because men, going through the Arctic (北极的) darkness, had discovered (发现) a yellow metal—gold. And because shipping and transportation companies were advertising the discovery, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted heavy dogs, with strong muscles (肌肉) for working and thick coats to protect them from the cold. Buck lived at Judge Miller’s house in the sunny-kissed Santa Clara Valley. There were big stables (马厩), long grape fields, fruit gardens and a big swimming pool. Buck ruled over the whole kingdom. Here he was born and here he had lived the four years of his life. But he had saved himself by not becoming a mere house dog. He protected the Judge’s sons and daughters on long midnight or early morning walks. On cold winter nights he lay at the Judge’s feet in front of the warm library fire. He was king—King over everything, crawled (爬行的), walked, or flew at Judge Miller’s place, including humans. Buck was this kind of dog in the autumn of 1897, when the discovery of gold in the Klondike pulled men from all over the world into the frozen North. But Buck did not read the newspapers. He did not know that Manuel, one of gardener’s helpers, was not to be trusted. Manuel loved to gamble (赌博). He believed he could win but he was doomed to failure. On the night of Manuel’s betrayal (背叛), no one saw him and Buck go off through the fields. Buck imagined it to be a relaxing walk. They arrived at a little train. A man talked with Manuel and money passed between them. Manuel tied a piece of thick rope around Buck’s neck. Buck accepted it quietly. To be sure, it was unwanted, but Buck had learned to trust men he knew. However, when the ends of the rope were placed in the stranger’s hands, he barked. Then the rope tightened (收紧) painfully, his tongue hanging out of his mouth. Then his strength disappeared, his eyes grew dim (浑浊), and he knew nothing when the train pulled up. Two men threw him into the baggage car. 41．Buck was a ________.

In fact, trouble was on its way for every strong dog with warm long hair. This was because men, going through the Arctic (北极的) darkness, had discovered (发现) a yellow metal—gold. And because shipping and transportation companies were advertising the discovery, thousands of men were rushing into the Northland. These men wanted heavy dogs, with strong muscles (肌肉) for working and thick coats to protect them from the cold. Buck lived at Judge Miller’s house in the sunny-kissed Santa Clara Valley. There were big stables (马厩), long grape fields, fruit gardens and a big swimming pool. Buck ruled over the whole kingdom. Here he was born and here he had lived the four years of his life. But he had saved himself by not becoming a mere house dog. He protected the Judge’s sons and daughters on long midnight or early morning walks. On cold winter nights he lay at the Judge’s feet in front of the warm library fire. He was king—King over everything, crawled (爬行的), walked, or flew at Judge Miller’s place, including humans. Buck was this kind of dog in the autumn of 1897, when the discovery of gold in the Klondike pulled men from all over the world into the frozen North. But Buck did not read the newspapers. He did not know that Manuel, one of gardener’s helpers, was not to be trusted. Manuel loved to gamble (赌博). He believed he could win but he was doomed to failure. On the night of Manuel’s betrayal (背叛), no one saw him and Buck go off through the fields. Buck imagined it to be a relaxing walk. They arrived at a little train. A man talked with Manuel and money passed between them. Manuel tied a piece of thick rope around Buck’s neck. Buck accepted it quietly. To be sure, it was unwanted, but Buck had learned to trust men he knew. However, when the ends of the rope were placed in the stranger’s hands, he barked. Then the rope tightened (收紧) painfully, his tongue hanging out of his mouth. Then his strength disappeared, his eyes grew dim (浑浊), and he knew nothing when the train pulled up. Two men threw him into the baggage car. 41．Buck was a ________. A．judge B．dog C．gardener D．horse 42．Why were thousands of men rushing into the Northland? ________ A．Because they could live a better life there. B．Because they might discover gold there. C．Because they could find strong dogs there. D．Because it was a warm place. 43．Buck lived at Judge Miller’s house for ________ years.

D．He went off through the fields. 45．The story is mainly about ________. A．animals’ trust in humans B．people’s discovery of gold C．Buck’s early life at Judge Miller’s D．the turning point (转折点) of Buck’s life B Can dolphins talk? Maybe they can’t talk with words, but they talk with sounds. They show their feelings (感觉) with sounds. Dolphins travel in a group. We call a group of fish a “school”. They don’t study, but they travel together. Dolphins talk to the other dolphins in the school. They give information. They tell when they are happy or sad or afraid. They say “welcome” when a dolphin comes back to the school. They talk when they play. They make a few sounds above water. They make many more sounds under water. People cannot hear these sounds because they are very, very high. Scientists make tapes of the sounds and study them. Sometimes people catch a dolphin for a large aquarium (水族馆). People can watch the dolphins in a show. Dolphins don’t like to be away from their school in an aquarium. They are sad and lonely. There are many stories about dolphins. They help people. Sometimes they save somebody’s life. Dolphin meat is good, but people don’t like to kill them. They say that dolphins bring good luck. Many people believe this. 46．Which is a dolphin? A． B． C． D． 47．Dolphins show their feelings with ________. A．pictures B．words C．water D．sounds 48．The underlined word “lonely” means ________ in Chinese.

Do you know that pigeons (鸽子) can be trained to help people too? Here are some examples. The postman People can train pigeons to carry messages. Usually, people tie a small can to a pigeon’s leg with a note inside. Then the pigeon flies off with the note. The lifeguard (救生员) From high up in the sky, specially trained pigeons can find orange life jackets in the sea. Sometimes, it is difficult for humans to find people lost at sea, especially when the weather is bad. However, pigeons can fly quickly over a large area of water to look for people. The spy (间谍) Many years ago, people used pigeons to help their countries during wars. Spy pigeons had small cameras that were tied to their feet. As a pigeon flew over the enemy’s (敌人的) land, the camera took photos of the land below. This would allow the soldiers to see where the enemies were and what they were doing. So, next time you see a pigeon, stop and watch it closely. What might look like an ordinary (普通的) bird to many people might really be helpful. 61 about pigeons Pigeons can 62 for people just as working dogs help policemen or horses help farmers.
